The Swannies BnF - on this afternoon

Hot on the heels of yesterday’s victory at the 2010 Indochina Cup in Saigon, the Vietnam Swans will head to the Spotted Cow at 111 Bui Vien Street for a glittering afternoon of season awards – including the Swannies 2010 Best & Fairest.

With players in town from Hanoi, Hoi An and Vung Tau, as well as Saigon of course, it should be a great afternoon.

One notable absentee from this afternoon’s event will be Matt Natalotto who suffered a nasty knock in yesterday’s opening game in which his jaw was broken. He is currently en route to Bangkok for treatment and all at the Club are thinking of him. While Matt’s in hospital in Bangkok, the Thailand Tigers have said that they would like to visit him. That’s an example of the great spirit of camaraderie and friendship that exists in Asian football. A magnificent gesture.

Meanwhile, did Monkey and JD do enough in the first few games of the year before they returned to Australia? Has Hornblower’s trip to Australia and thereby missing yesterday’s Indochina cost him a crack at the title of Swannies’ B&F? Did Dukes start too late? Did Gus leave too early?

So many questions that can only be answered this afternoon at the Swannies Best & Fairest.
